The program lasts for 2 weeks. We meet Monday through Friday, school hours are 9am-5pm.
How many tattoos will I do while there?
Most of our students generally get about 2-3 done a day. That translates to approximately 18-20 tattoos for your portfolio.

You will be taking home a brand new, professional tattoo machine, included with every enrollment.
Do you provide lodging?
Yes, we offer FREE lodging for 2 weeks at all of our locations.
Do I need to be an artist?
You will learn many things such as shading and color contrasting, but you need to have a good basic hand-eye coordination and a steady hand. Your level of proficiency is what will set you apart from the "crowd".
Will I have a portfolio when I graduate?
When you graduate from The Tattoo Learning Center you will leave with a DVD which will have digital images of all the tattoos you completed while here to start your portfolio.
Will I be licensed when I graduate?
Although you will be monitored and regulated while at our various school locations, you will still need to re-apply for licensing in the county or state in which you plan to work.
Tattoo Licenses do NOT transfer from one place to another.

What do you say about the haters and shops saying they won't hire TLC graduates?
At the Tattoo Learning Center we are very proud to be creating a tattoo revolution! Modern education has found it's way here and we are the very best tattoo educators out there. As far as shops saying they won't hire tattoo school graduates, my reply: "You already have, you just don't know it." :) |
